Class Conditions:
Samurai – Only Humans, Elves, and Half-Elves may be a Samurai. gains the Katana weapon for free. must swear fealty to a master and must be devoted to what he/she commands. if the Samurai ever disrespects their master, or fails to do as commanded, the Samurai is shunned and shamed, losing their title of Samurai, and must atone for the disrespect. Failure to atone, or if the master of the Samurai dies, the Samurai then becomes a Ronin. once per day, as a Samurai, may focus their inner strength by emitting a war shout, or “kiai!”, which increases their Strength attribute by double (maximum of 8D) for one full round. If the Samurai has lost their title, or become a Ronin, they cannot use this ability. must choose the Reading/Writing skill at character creation. may purchase Oriental weapons and armor.

Monk (Eastern) – Any race but Dwarves may be a Monk. gains the skill of Reading/Writing at +1D. may only wear Leather, Padded, or Hide armor. Monks may “fast” for a time period of up to 2 weeks, and may continue to operate without suffering penalties for lack of food, as long as the Monk has water to drink. after 1 week of “fasting”, the Monk must make a Moderate Willpower check to avoid gaining Fatigue. each time the Monk fails, they gain 1 Fatigue from the lack of food. when fail, must make another roll the next day. if succeed in the roll, may wait to make just one last Willpower roll at the end of the 2nd week. a Monk may not “fast” for more than 2 weeks, ever, even if they can manage to avoid the effects of fatigue. Monks may enter a meditative state that refreshes their mind and body. if in meditation for 4 hours, uninterrupted, they can ignore all effects of Fatigue for a period of 1 hour afterwards. meditation does NOT take the place of sleeping. a Monk can come out of meditation instantly and alertly without suffering any penalties from being in meditation. most Monks, if they use any weapon at all, use only a Staff or a Spear. when armed with such weapons, a Monk can perform special moves when they reach certain skill levels. when a Monk with Melee Combat reaches 3D in the skill, they may block arrows or other thrown or shot weapons with a Staff or Spear. when Melee Combat reaches 5D, the Monk gains the specialty of Staff Strike, and a Difficult roll using that ability allows the Monk to successfully stun and knock down a man-sized target with ONE hit with the weapon, regardless of damage.

Monk (Western) – Any race but Dwarves and Gnomes may be this type of Monk. begins with the rank of Novice, belonging to a religious faith of their choosing. as a Novice Monk, may not use any edged weapons, only Blunt weapons. may only wear light armor, no metal armor. as a Novice Monk, gain the ability of “Slow Poison”. may not wear a black robe or cassock. no special vows are required by a Novice Monk. must spend at least two weekends a month at a monastery of the faith the Novice has chosen in order to study. must pledge to uphold the beliefs and teachings of the monastery. may be cast out of the monastery if do not follow the beliefs and represent the monastery in a positive manner. grants Will Power at 1D for using the “Slow Poison”. If do something against the beliefs, the ability of “Slow Poison” is lost until penitent for a day, at which time you regain the ability at sunset. is considered a “monk in training”. may put Character Points towards advancing to higher ranks in the Monastery, first to Robe Bearer, then Cross Bearer, and maybe even the Great Schema.

To become a Robe Bearer, must bank 30 Character Points total (may be put towards this a little at a time rather than all at once). This increases your Will Power to 2D. Given a Robe/Cossack to wear to symbolize their devotion to their faith. May only equip themselves with a Staff weapon and may only wear leather armor under their robes. Also, from this level on, Monks may boost their will by uttering a song-like prayer (think of the chanting Monks in old monasteries) which can resist the effects of Fear if they fail their Willpower skill check against Fear. A successful Will Power check with the same difficulty will negate the effects of Fear. Robe Bearers must give 50% of all the money they earn or find to their monastery, every month. These are typically known as “traveling Monks”. In addition to “Slow Poison” ability, they also gain the ability of “Bless”. Robe Bearers are typically given new names, such as Brother Paul, or a single name such as Luke or Adam to signify that they are “dead to the world and become anew”. They are also given a Klobuk (brimless metal hat) which gives them +1 Protection against Blunt and Edged attacks made against them. This protects their ENTIRE body, not just their head, due to the power of faith.

To become a Cross Bearer, must bank 60 Character Points total. This increases your Will Power to 3D. Awarded the “Half Habit” piece of clothing and MUST take their vows of poverty, obedience, and chastity. From this point on the Monk may not possess any money unless it is to take it directly to a nearby donation spot. They may also not own any other items other than what they are given by the monastery. They have all other special abilities and also gain “Cure Serious Wounds” and “Shillelagh”. They must remain good, pure, and poor, as well as obedient to their monastery or church. They continue to wear the black cassock but add the Half Habit that is affixed with a wooden cross that rests just above their heart. The Half Habit carries the emblem of their monastery and provides a basic +2 Protection against ALL attack types. Cross Bearers may not wear any armor and may only carry a Staff.

To become the Great Schema, must bank 230 Character Points total. This increases your Will Power to 5D. This is the highest achievement of rank for a Monk. They must still follow all of the conditions of a Cross Bearer, but must also give up the life of venturing out and devote their time to teach and nurture other Monks to become Cross Bearers. They have all of the above special abilities and also gain “Resist Fire/Cold”, “Heal”, and “Scrying”. Schema Monks don’t really travel and rarely leave the monastery. If things become particularly dire, a Great Schema may venture out for a specific, highly important mission. More than one Schema Monk on a mission means that the “end times” are near. A Great Schema Monk gains a Full Habit, a wide scapular that shows their devotion to their deity and their monastery. It provides 1D+1 Protection against ALL types of attacks. Schema Monks do not carry any weapons, but may be issued a Staff if the need arises for them to journey. They also gain a Burning Censer. The Censer gives them the ability of “Protection From Evil” while it burns and smoke emanates from it. The smoke protection lasts for 3 hours. The Censer can either be attached to a chain and swung forward and backward as they walk, which widens the range of protection to 15 meters, or the Censer can be stationary, placed on a surface like the ground or a table, and makes the range of protection 5 meters.

If the user chooses to leave the stone, he must move out through the same face of the stone that he entered on.
